Vendor websites

[impalaragpat]

Ive been looking at Impala part suppliers web sites and have found that some are virtually worthless. The Classic Industries site is nearly impossible to navigate. Is it just me? They require you to download a copy of the catalog and page thru to find the part you want. The search function is worthless too. I have my tax refund burning a hole in my pocket. 61 interior and new conv. top are going to be bought soon . If I cant find the parts I want on a website how do they expect me to spend my money? I most likely wouldnt use Classic Ind. anyway , just seeing whats available.

C.A.R.S Inc. is easy enough and so is Paddock, Year 1, and Harmons.

After recently buying a headliner from C.A.R.S. Inc.,,,,,, I will use them in the future if at all possible. They supplied a hard catalogue with the delivery of the headliner and man!!, what a catalogue. At very least it must cost several dollars to print. From what I can tell, their prices are equal or better than other vendors. Just my 2 cents worth.

You might want to give these guys a try, they have the same stuff as everybody else and usually have the best prices.

Cars products are IMO are very good. I think if you call them they will send you a catalog and will refund the cost of the catalog with your next order. Like Ronnie said, it is a very nice catalog and very easy to navigate unlike so many of the others.

C.A.R.'s Interior Division is here in Tempe, Az. They were Ciadella's before CARS bought them . I bought my interior for the 58 wagon from them and it was really good quality and very true to original although there was a minor fitment problem on the back seat. Larry is the guy running the operation and was very good to work with.

You can order Classic Inds catalog on line. You will have it in a few days. The ONLY way to navigate their clumsy website is put in the part # from the hard catalog. BTW, the catalog is as thick as a phone book!

C.A.R.S. Inc is a head above ANYONE else selling interior kits.. They make their own.

Now put that $$$ back in circulation..

I jusr received from c.a.r.s. new covers for my front bucket seats and also new foam for the seats and the backs. The foam just would not work, it did not fit, not even close. I was able to return the foam with no problem. The nice thing about c.a.r.s. is that you can order the front or back seats separately if you don't need to replace both. Their quality is really good.
Classic I beleive makes you buy the complete set, front and back. Classic also has 2 grades of foam cushions and backs. The better grade is absolutely the best, it really matches the original. My seat covers from c.a.r.s. and my foam seat cushion and back from Classic. Classic's web site takes a little getting used to. Both companies have excellent catalogs and charge for them but will remit on your first order.

I just contacted Phil Reed in KC when it came to interior parts and rubber parts. Seems like there are multiple sources out there, and Phil is a dealer for many of them, and was able to package a lot of stuff up for me, making it an easy "one-stop-shopping experience".

Cheers!
